What is the best flashlight for your car?

What happens in the
middle of the night when your car breaks down on the side of the road? When you
need to change a flat tyre in a dark parking lot? Or when you lose your keys or
phone between the seat and the console?

You’re going to end up
fumbling around in the dark unless you have a flashlight handy. In that case,
you have no problem getting under the hood, changing that tyre or finding your
keys.

A flashlight is an
essential part of any emergency preparedness kit; in fact, it is one of the most
important items to have when roadside assistance is too far away to help.

But, what is the best
flashlight for your car? Let’s look at what a quality emergency flashlight for
the car possesses:

- Convenient Size
The ideal flashlight for your car is lightweight and small. You want a
flashlight that can easily fit in your glove box or inside your emergency kit
in your boot.

- Long Battery Life
Batteries eventually lose their charge, and there is no way to know when or how
often you will need to use your emergency flashlight, but when you do use it,
you want it to work without fail!

- Easy to Recharge
Ideally you want a flashlight that is easy to recharge, preferably one that can
be charged directly from your car or computer. Even if your car doesn’t have a
USB adapter, there are easy adapters that transform the traditional “cigarette
lighter” into a powerful USB charging port.

- Durable
A cheap, plastic flashlight won’t survive the impact of a car accident. It might
not even survive daily wear and tear in your glove box or boot. It’s very
important for your emergency flashlight to work all the time.

- Bright
Have you ever turned on a flashlight that’s beam is so dim it’s almost useless?
You definitely don’t want that to happen on the side of the road, in the dark!
Make sure your emergency flashlight offers at least 250 lumens of brightness.
